Each piece of work is envisaged to be awarded by a suitable mini competition process and up to four suitable suppliers will be qualified to the framework and invited to take part in each mini competition. If a specialist supplier is qualified to the framework that is focused on for example young, BAME or for GDPR purposes then TfWM reserves the right to make a direct award if deemed to be appropriate.
